I never thought me, of all people, would say this.

But I am starting to lose interest in Destiny. And I'm starting to lose it [i]fast.[/i] Yesterday, I kept browsing the PlayStation store looking for new games. And then when I closed it out and saw Destiny 2, I just sighed. I just don't understand. How does this even happen? I was expecting Destiny 2 to be everything Destiny 1 was(Post Rise Of Iron) and better. It's not even that. This just feels like a repeat of Vanilla D1. And as much as I hate putting on those stupid rose-tinted glasses, Destiny 1 actually had a raid that was enjoyable. It had fascinating gear with perks that were HELPFUL(Bonus damage to oracles, and extra heavy ammo boots, anyone?) And all the weapons were top-tier, and if they weren't top tier, they were still good. Fatebringer, Found Verdict, Mythoclast, Praedyth's Revenege, Hezen Vengeance, Vision of Confluence. It also gave us a sense of prestige and sense of wonder. Elemental Primaries! A legendary type of weapon that could only be found as a reward from the raid. Obtaining these gave you a sense of [b]power[/b], as on Nightfalls with a burn, your -blam!-ing primary was doing an unreasonable amount of damage. Everything in D2 seems.. Weak. Unimpressive. (Except Legend of Acrius. I love that thing.) I'm a titan main(duh) and in D1, [i]An Insurmountable Skullfort[/i] and [i]Dunemarchers[/i] were not that appealing to me. But in D2? They're arguably one of the best exotics titans have right now. And they're still the same version from D1! I'm just gonna cut this post short and say this: [b][i]The Endgame is not fun, and the rewards aren't worth the headache.[/i][/b] I'm not gonna do the stupid Exodus Crash strike on prestige because it's [b][i][u]BUGGED, IT IS NOT FUN TO DO BECAUSE OF HOW POORLY DESIGNED IT IS, AND BECAUSE OF TIMERS AND THE STUPID TIME ONION RINGS AND ODKWKDJEOWKRNWOWJRJWD[/u][/i][/b] And what reward am I gonna get? A duplicate/and or undesired exotic and some tokens? I am 305. These rewards don't mean anything to me anymore. The Prestige raid won't mean anything to me because it doesn't increase light level. The weapons are boring and dull. And the bad part about this is, the community [b][i][u]HAS BEEN SAYING THIS SINCE LAUNCH. WE HAVE BEEN SAYING THE SAME -blam!-ING COMPLAINTS SINCE LAUNCH.[/u][/i][/b] YOU KNOW WHAT WE GET? WE GET STUPID WEEKLY UPDATES TELLING US SHIT WE ALREADY KNOW AND AT THE VERY -blam!-ING END OF IT, WE GET "We hear you" OR SOME OTHER VAGUE SHIT I. JUST. WANT. ANSWERS. Address each of our problems and give us solutions that you are working on. Getting a "we hear you" every week is demoralizing, Bungie. It really is. I mean, -blam!-. This game has become such a bore that I'm not even motivated to write fan-fictions or some other cringy crap. That at least should tell you how I am feeling. Please. Stop the reskins. Stop half-assing. Talk to us. Give us a roadmap. [b][i]Do something.[/i][/b] I'll still stick around. But I will not be playing as much until something changes. It has to, or you're asking for your game to fail. Come on, Bungie. I know you can do it. All those talented folks up at Seattle can give us all what we've been asking for.

    I'm with you BraveCole, I had over 2500 hours in d1 loved that game, and didn't even pvp much, just iron banner. After this mess that was Iron banner, my soul was crushed. I can't get motivated to log in. But I just started warframe which I have had installed for over 3 years, at first it felt like I was lost and just button mashing, but giving it a little attention and I am becoming a powerful smooth ninja mfer. The details in this game, damn. You can change the color of your damn energy bolts to whatever you want. I haven't spent a dime yet, but if the game keeps me amazed I might have to support this gem of a game.

  • Honestly I really enjoyed the main campaign and I got a good 50 hours or so out of the game until I got bored. I still think it’s a good game but it’s very much a casual game now. That’s not really a criticism just an observation. I think D2 will be the sort of game I play for a month when the DLC’s come out and then put back on the shelf after that. And I’m fine with that. There are plenty of other great games out there to play. The issue for Bungie is that I’m not sure if they intended it to be that way. It seems to me they want people to keep playing but they’ve failed to give players any real incentive to do so. Unlike many other people on this forum though I don’t want more pointless grind. I want more story content. New adventures. Bigger and better lost sectors. More NPC’s etc. etc. That’s where this game really fell short in my opinion. Lost sectors where underdeveloped, the worlds still felt empty and there wasn’t any motivation to explore them. And most importantly there wasn’t enough story content to motivate me to keep playing beyond the (short) main campaign.

      • Problem is that the Destiny community worked so hard and faithfully stuck through the evolution of Destiny as we waited patiently for the changes to be made to fix issues. Our struggles brought Destiny 1 from a bit of a mess to something everyone of us fell in love with. Now Bungie has spit in our faces and developed a watered down version of the game while ignoring all the enhancements we fought so hard for to be implemented over the years. Here we are with vanilla Destiny 2 and back to square 1... no, actually vanilla D2 isn't even as polished and refined as vanilla D1. Let that sink in. So, now we're expected to fight for the original changes we fought for during D1? Bungie has totally disrespected the Destiny community.

        • Osiris will bring it up to standards, d2 and rise of iron where in develoument at the same time, and it is an overall better game, I have started to play other games, but I still play destiny 2, and I enjoy it, I love the fact destiny 2 does not require 100% commitment and practically forswearing other games to progress meaningfully

            Almost every improvement they have made after three years was just thrown away. I don't understand that. It feels like a worse version of D1 Year 3, which shouldn't be... at all. Edit: some lore aspects are disappointing as well. Saladin just randomly shows up as an IB vendor? Really? That's it? And he's the Last Iron Lord huh? Like Rise of Iron never happened. I admit I like the raid lore though; the stories about Calus's Shadows and the Cabal.

            • Same OP. I listened as my clan's A Team raided prestige last night and now I'm not even the least bit interested in smashing my head against that wall, and I'm 305 even. How could they think making the raid so heavy ammo dependent and then remove ammo synths was a good idea? Don't answer that. The loot system in D2 doesn't compel me. It's cool that we have the option to pursue a bunch of different and neat looking armor sets (NM, EDZ, Raid, etc... ) My lock and titan are all decked out in NM and DO respectively. But the random way I had to grind out those armor drops sucked I used to be able to CHOOSE a few items each week. Even Iron Banner which used to guarantee two armor items per event is screwed up and too RNG for me. And the engram turn in level going up and down depending on time is 100% garbage. As a 305 I haven't turned in a Shazz, Gunsmith or Zavala reward in like 2 weeks. Why would I? Anything less than 300 is worthless to me. I'm warning my PC friends too, hopefully they can dodge the bullet we've been cautioning them about for months.

            • This game is 0 like vanilla Destiny. Remeber those dmg/armor upgrade perks on all gear that actually mattered? Remember farming materials on patrol and exploring the world doing so? The VoG was extremely awesome compared to the leviathan. There was so much gear to farm ... I remember looking at the PvP vendor gear and craving to get enough marks and rank 3 to buy it. Daily bounties and the hype when the first people got exotic quests from them. I grinded those bounties daily, got the bad juju quests and did 25 strikes back to back to get the exotic weapon - my first exotic after days and days of playing. Now with D2 you get everything day 1, nothing really matters, there are about 50 different weapons, that are not all really that different. PvP is so easy that it gets boring after 1 match Vendors do not sell anything Patrols are completetly useless Exotics are handed over to you Ingame store with 20€ purchases

                • We're not allowed to have primaries with elemental burns, we're not allowed to have real fun heavy weapons like Gally, Sleeper or a heavy machine gun, hell we aren't even allowed to have ammo. FIX THIS CRAP BUNGIE!!! Those of us that had 1000's of hours in D1 are fleeing and looking for alternatives. I've been defending this crap since release and I can't do it anymore. Communicate a plan to fix this before this game is dead.

                  Fortnite battlegrounds is AMAZING and if you want something with tons of content get Smite. Free to play, and only $30 for 90+ characters all with unique abilities but there is a steep learning curve to that game. Destiny 2 has catered so much to the casual that they are losing their hardcore players in the process of it. I have no will to keep playing.

                    A lot of these posts are just "I hate this, I hate that" which is understandable at this point.. it's not that all these posts are hate driven, they are made out of sadness! They are driving the fanbase away that kept destiny 1 alive until destiny 2.. at this point in time i wouldve preferred another D1 update instead of this empty game.. Is it my fault for getting over excited because I was so evolved in D1? Did i set the bar to high? I know I wasn't expecting a downgrade, which is essentially what we got.. What pisses me off the most? Bungie will reply to a guy asking about deleting shaders. But topics like these they ignore.. and then they are extremely condescending in their TW@B blogs..

                    Well so far the community has gone through 3 of the 5 steps of grief. During beta and days following release we were in denial, then the anger set in and it got ugly, many of us are going through the bargaining phase now with tons and tons of game suggestions, but I think some of us are just bummed out at this point. Around December I expect we will hit the acceptance step and the cycle will start over with the first "dlc"...

                      Totally agree. D2 back fired on Bungie. It is doing everything they don’t won’t it to do. Instead of building up the community it is tearing it apart. If we decide not to play then we won’t have a community. I’m right there with you, I’ve been losing interest for weeks. Now that there’s nothing for me to do I’m just going to move on to play something else. I really want to love this game again. I hope Bungie is able to fix this mess.

                    • It's vanilla destiny all over again. People complain about how bad it is, they release some dlcs to keep people to still play it, then they release the big update that will save the game. In destiny 1 we got the two small dlcs and then they released the taken king dlc, which was an overall awesome dlc. I bet they are gonna do the exact same for destiny 2.
